The Dark brotherood describe him as a something above a God, as the Void. And that those who serve him was the ones killed by the DB hands. Homever that's not what i'm intersted. I want to know if this guy is real, since there's indications of his existence, with the nightmother quotes as well as the Spectral Assasin quotes (best hyphotesis). i want to know, is this guy real? Or just someone that created his own realm by morthals belives or just because he was powerfull like Magnus, or just a myth like Tosh Raka?

I think he was the original being, he is the void itself. he's not a guy.

I read somewhere that he was the creator or something like that

and is Tosh Raka A myth?... i was hoping that he would come and unite the khajiit with his people and we will take over the world lol

http://imperial-library.info/content/sithis should clear some things up (also increases your Alteration skill!)

A "void" is a simple way of describing him. There is also a description that he is everything that is evil and sinister.

In my understanding, Sithis is not a "physical" being. He is a perspective on life. He is metaphysical. When a DB Assassin carries out a Contract, it may be considered brutal murder, but to the Black Hand, it is "the work of Sithis."

When one sees darkness in the light, one finds Sithis. Shadowmere can be considered a physical manifestation of Sithis' power, but this is drawing a longbow.

In fact, the evil inside good ol' Akatosh, Sithis' influence, caused him "to split in half" and release Lorkhan. The Night Mother is a spirit inside a corpse because she discovered the true darkness inside herself, Sithis. When Lorkhan disappeared, he left a "Sithis-shaped hole," because the darkness that was present in the Divines as Lorkhan had disappeared, and needed to be replaced...

Yeah Tosh Raka description as well from Ka-Po-tun looks like alot from the Khajiit description. Anyway what's the possibility of the Ka-po-tun in fact be a very powerfull Khajiit empire? Since the Akakavirian forests remids us of Elsywhere.

Read my sig. Why don't people read my sig more often?

Also, don't use the DB as a legitimate source for mythological knowledge. After all, there are other gods of death, such as Arkay and Shor. You ask me, it's one of Melphala's trolling schemes. After all, the Deephallow Scorn thing place adds to it, with a giant death god statue, whose missing his heart. Know who else is missing a heart? Lokhan/Shor/Shezarr. Pretty sure the DB are unknowingly worshipping the Lorkhan aspect, with Melphala as the Night Mother.

I read that. Anyway the monomyths could just be other verions of the same lie.

Sithis is the soul of Padomay, and is the repestation of Chaos to Anuiel's Stasis. It's a force meant to be an opposite to another. This is continued with Lorkhan being Sithis's soul, with Aka being the soul of Anuiel. And because Lorkhan is seen as limit and the soul of Sithis, it becomes a "eh, close enough" situation that Sithis also represents limits. And what better way to celebrate the greatest limit there is, mortality, than by killing?

Immediately followed by temporary lapse of unconsciousness-godtime. Is this real life?

That's how I always saw it. Especially with the DB's connection to the Morag Tong and the Tong's connection to Mephala.

Why is Herma-Mora referenced in the end? O_o Also, the author is a bit too biased to take anything he says seriously.

It's the Aldmeri language. "HERMA MORA" there means "knowledge."

Is not Mora the elvish word for Forest? So wouldn't that mean that Herma Mora as it is couldn't simply mean 'knowledge'?

Aldmer were elves. "HERMA MORA" is Ehlnofex, though, and Ehlnofex relies on association and metaphor. So HERMA MORA could mean "seeing the forest through the trees," which is a sort of knowledge.

Right, I know that which is why I put the emphasis. Saying that Herma Mora mean't knowledge in Aldmeri when Mora is the Aldmeri word for Forest wouldn't fit together for me since its essentially two words, not one. Which is why I asked, I'm not up to date on it and all.

Yeah, i think that i drinked the ultimate Skooma bootle made by the Deadric Prince of Drugs Mai'q the Poop. He created the Moon Sugar after create the first Toilet and then make poop. The Dragons on mythc Era called this event as "Skooma"

well sprit's seem to sense when something is wrong in the void.

so to answer your question, i think he is Real. well , that depends on what u consider real.

And you base that off of what?

Sithis is real, and he ent self-aware.

Deepscorn Hollow*

Meh, close enough.

The Deepscorn Hollow representation of Sithis is so close to that of Shor; the only thing it's missing is a http://mostodd.files.wordpress.com/2011/01/p32-viking-helmet.gif and http://www.beer100.com/images/beermug.jpg.

I dunno, I see it closer to Lorkhan than Shor.

How so? I see Lorkhan as the Aetherial god and Shor as the mundane god. As in Lorkhan is dead and missing; Shor is alive and well tending to souls in Sovngarde occasionally throwing a bit of himself up top to bust skulls.

*edit*

But yes, I do see how he would look more Merish and less Nordic as a robed figure.

That, and the mer see him only as "limit" which is what the DB ultimately worship.

What do you mean by limit? I've seen people on the forums use the term before, but I'm not sure what it means.
